Re: Good quality vinyl for intricate work
Looking for a good alternative to Xpres super flex, suitable for intricate work and needs to be overlaid.
Any suggestions?

Re: Good quality vinyl for intricate work
what about that vinyl company we saw a Fespa? I think they were called HEXIS. I do not know much about vinyl but I seem to remember that you and Jason thought it was pretty good.

Also, I was speaking to Target yesterday as there is a new print and cut transfer vinyl they have which sounds good and very thin. They might have the same as straight vinyl.
I am waiting on a sample roll, once I have it I will let you know the name.

For detailed work I used Target premium but have now switched to Magitouch 123 flex. The premium has a super sticky backing good for detailed work and the 123 isnt as sticky but weeds like a dream. Best to request samples from both companies and test for yourself

The premium from Stahls (Target in the UK) is super for this work. But make sure you ask for the version with the stick carrier or its a pain to weed. Dont know about the 123 flex.
Hexis, I believe, only do sign vinyl.

Hexis also do garment vinyl now as I went to the same show as socialgirafe, I think its a fairly new product from them though but not too sure. Got a sample sheet somewhere but haven't had a chance to test it yet.Earl Smith;77750 wrote:The premium from Stahls (Target in the UK) is super for this work.

Re: Good quality vinyl for intricate work
I thought Hexis only did sign vinyl, sorry. Here is their link to their Textile range.
